On October 19th, 2015 Archery Talk implemented some new classified user requirements.

First, a new user will have to wait two weeks before they will be able to start a classified ad.

Second, a user must have at least 20 posts prior to starting a classified ad. This will go for all users, if you have been a user for two years and have 10 posts, you will not be allowed to start a classified thread until your post count is at least 20.
Please be aware that it takes a little time for the server to recognize and reset your permissions once you have met those two criteria. Please be patient.

If you have not yet received a password reset, please re-issue one here:

Short Range (like just about any woods scenario where your longest possible shot is 30yds): Some variation of a biscuit. Preferably one with minimal shaft contact like the Octane Hostage.

Long Range (like you might see in open country where you could shoot 65yds or maybe more): Some kind of drop away. Preferably the limbdriver or a high en full containment rest like the QAD HDX or Rip Cord Code Red. I have not tried the Limb Driver Pro-V yet, but it looks promising if you want full containment.

I agree that the QAD HD was terrible. It couldn't clear the fletchings when shot on my 82nd. The HDX makes the cut though. I'd still like to see a comparison of the NAP sizzor and armorrest and that Revolution everyone seems to like so much.

I've got to give Pigman credit for that group. It's impressive. Still, I would prefer to give myself the additional forgiveness at longer ranges. I never said long range couldn't be done with a whisker biscuit, but no one can say that a whisker biscuit offers as much or more forgiveness as a drop away rest.

Put a little felt/moleskin on your riser where the rest contacts it. If you don't like the way that looks there are specific products for that purpose. I went with the felt and took a sharpie to it to get a unique lime and black tiger stripe pattern. It's not pro level by any means, but it's my work and the felt is effective.

Whisker Biscuit. It simple, easy to tune, and very dependable. I have used one for almost 10 years and it has never let me down. When that MONSTER is within bow range, you won't have to worry about the Whisker Biscuit failing. I'm sure which ever rest you choose, you will find one that works for you. good luck.
